With our Environment Expo we wish to entertain and educate our visitors on many different ways to be environmentally conscious, from going green, to alternative energy sources, to sustainability efforts, and to protecting the environment,� said Loney.

Camillus Kayak Shop offers advice, expertise Buyers matched to boat that suits their individual needs
T
he Camillus Kayak Shop opened for business with two lines of kayaks – a total of six boats in the shop – in 1998. At that time Kitt, (owner Thomas Kitt) was running a successful stained glass business he also started from scratch. Kitt’s business took off due to the growing popularity of kayaking and the lack of customer guidance among the other kayak retailers. Operating mostly by himself, Kitt is able to ensure that
every kayak buyer is matched to the boat that best meets their individual characteristics and circumstances. Customers range from those who have never sat in a kayak to expert kayakers interested in the latest racing models. There are kayaks for children as young as 6 or 7 years old that will allow them to match an adult paddler’s pace. Today you will find 10 manufacturers’ lines - more than 150 kayaks in Kitt’s shop, which was the former Masonic Lodge in the village of Camillus. He has studied kayak design and built several kayaks at the shop, and shares his knowledge with anyone who is interested. Kitt and wife Kathy
Date Your Mate! Experience the romance of Kayaking! Complimentary lesson with every kayak purchase!
participate in the Easter n Outdoor Retailers Association annual shows and demos and Kitt ensures prospective boatbuyers that either he or Kathy have test paddled every boat in the shop. Customers can trust Kitt’s advice and expertise to put them in the most appropriate kayak to ensure many years of paddling enjoyment. He has also instituted a new policy: everyone who purchases a new kayak from his shop will receive a complimentary paddling lesson. He points out that people spend money on the boats he recommends and in order to get the most enjoyment from them they need to learn some basic skills. Private lessons, gift certificates, accessories, safety gear and delivery service are also available, as is more information on the web at camilluskayak.com.

New ride to debut at Enchanted Forest/Water Safari
N
ew York’s largest water theme park is getting bigger, better and wetter this summer and telling guests to “Go Ape…If They Dare!” Park staff began construction this fall on a new CanonBOWL water slide which will debut for the summer on opening day Wednesday June 17. The first new water ride since the installation of the Shadow in 2002, this new double tube ride, purchased from Proslide Technology Inc. of Canada, will be located on the popular Water Safari Island right next door to sister thrill ride Killermanjaro. The ride’s name, The Curse of the Silverback, definitely puts the word theme in water theme park. The “silverback” theme refers to the dominant male gorillas who lead and protect their living groups, named after the mature male’s saddle of light grey hair. Gorillas are found in several countries in Africa, including the Democratic Republic of Congo. The park chose the silverback
gorilla theme for a number of reasons. They’re a perfect fit for the safari theme - the image of the gorilla’s power adds more thrill to the ride, and they’re very fascinating creatures who are endangered and need to be protected. “We are in a great position to help and that’s why we have partnered with the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International (DFGFI) to raise awareness and funds for the gorillas,” said Katie Noonan, marketing director for the park. “In December of 2008 we adopted our own silverback gorilla through the organization and during the summer we’re bringing a DFGFI fundraising initiative to the park called “Coins for Congo” that will support programs in Africa that improve the survival of these amazing primates who so closely
match our own human genetic makeup. We are reaching out and asking people to help,” Noonan adds. 2009 has even been named the Year of the Gorilla by several organizations including the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization that are launching initiatives to protect these primates. By visiting the park this summer, families can enjoy a day full of fun, experience our new water ride and learn more about the gorillas and what can be done to protect them! The Enchanted Forest/Water Safari features more than 50 rides and attractions, including 32 water rides all with heated water. The park is located on Route 28 in Old Forge, and opens for the 2009 season on Wednesday June 17.

Since January 2008, the Yamaha OHV Access Initiative (www. yamaha-motor.com/ohvaccess) has been assisting ATV clubs across the country with establishing and expanding recreational opportunities. To date Yamaha has awarded more than $875,000 throughout the United States with New York receiving approximately $120,000 in the initiative’s first year of funding. These awards have been pivotal in adding and maintaining access to thousands of miles of trails through private and state land. “The Yamaha OHV Access Initiative was created to serve as a resource to those in the OHV community dedicated to safe and responsible riding and open, sustainable access to our nation’s
ice cream
trails,” said Steve Nessl, marketing manager of Yamaha’s ATV and SxS operations. “From the many applications received and the grants awarded to organizations such as the Oswego Valley ATV Club, clearly New York has tremendous potential as an OHV adventure tourism destination.” OVTVA members James Marra-president, Jermey Bomgrenvice-president, Regina Lunkenheimer-treasurer and Patricia Marra-secretary with support from Wheel-A-Way Motorsports in Fulton submitted the Application on Feb. 23, 2009, and were subsequently notified of the award April 14. With this grant, OVATV club acquired a Massey Ferguson tractor and surfacing equipment to expand and combine their system to more than 100 miles with an interconnection with the ALL County ATV Club.
